A national survey of 1516 respondents reached on land lines and cell phones found that the percentage of adults who favor legalized abortion has dropped from 55% a year ago to 45%. The study claimed that the error atributable to sampling is 4 percentage points. Would you claim that a majority of people are not in favor of legalized abortion?

The upper bound of the interval is below 0.5, which means that it can be claimed that a majority of people are not in favor of legalized abortion

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval:

Sample proportion plus/minus margin of error.

In this question:

Sample proportion of 0.45, margin of error of 0.04. So

0.45 - 0.04 = 0.41

0.45 + 0.04 = 0.49

The confidence interval is of (0.41,0.49). The upper bound of the interval is below 0.5, which means that it can be claimed that a majority of people are not in favor of legalized abortion

the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side. if you take the three sides of a triangle and add them in pairs, the sum is greater than (not equal to) the third side. if that is not true, then it is not possible to construct a triangle with the given side lengths.
